Re: [Evolution] Having to manually fire filters

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

Actually I should clarify it a little, as it can only happen in the
following cases:

 - using 'spool' or 'spooldir' providers with 'filter inbox' enabled. 
This shows up as "Standard Unix mbox spools" and "Directory tree of mbox
files" as the server type.  Although i'm not sure you can even filter
inbox in this situation.
 - using 'imap' providers with 'filter inbox' enabled, "IMAP"
 - using 'maildir' or 'pop' providers or 'mbox', this shoudln't happen,
"Maildir-format directories", and "POP" and "Local Delivery".

Note, if you're using 'Standard Unix mbox spools', and just want to have
all your mail moved to evolution's inbox anyway, you should be using
"Local delivery".  The naming is confusing we know, we'd like to fix
that if anyone has better ideas.
